For formerly colonized peoples, however, this process neither begins nor ends with independence, and it is rarely straightforward. Mapping their own land is fraught with a fresh set of issues: how to define and administer their territories, develop their national identity, establish their role in the community of nations, and more. The contributors explore this complicated relationship between mapping and decolonization while engaging with recent theoretical debates about the nature of decolonization itself. These essays, originally delivered as the 2010 'Kenneth Nebenzahl Jr. Lectures in the History of Cartography' at the Newberry Library, encompass more than two centuries and three continents - Latin America, Africa, and Asia. Ranging from the late eighteenth century through the mid-twentieth, contributors study topics from mapping and national identity in late colonial Mexico to the enduring complications created by the partition of British India and the racialized organization of space in apartheid and post-apartheid South Africa. A vital contribution to studies of both colonization and cartography, this is the first book to systematically and comprehensively examine the engagement of mapping in the long and clearly unfinished parallel processes of decolonization and nation building in the modern world. 000801934 650_0 $$aCartography$$xPolitical aspects. 000801934 650_0 $$aDecolonization. 000801934 7001_ $$aAkerman, James R.,$$eeditor. 000801934 830_0 $$aKenneth Nebenzahl, Jr., lectures in the history of cartography. 000801934 85200 $$bgen$$hGA108.7$$i.D44$$i2017 000801934 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:801934$$pGLOBAL_SET 000801934 980__ $$aBIB 000801934 980__ $$aBOOK
